General : The
Syndicate Celebrates
Its 20th Anniversary

Posted Feb 06,

Online gaming
community The
Syndicate is
celebrating its 20th
anniversary. Calling
itself "the most
successful online
gaming community in
online gaming", the
guild holds a
Guinness World
Record for the
longest continiously
operating online
guild. In addition,
there have been two
books published
about The Syndicate
and much, much more.

We have
achieved a
retention rate
of over
99%. That
means that
hardly anyone
ever quits The
Syndicate (or
gets kicked out)
because they
don't want to be
part of the
community
anymore.
We certainly
have people who
go inactive
because their
life pulls them
away from gaming
but its very
rare we have a
drama infused
implosion of
someone or an
angry person who
quits to join
another guild.

Over
80,000,000
guilds have been
created... and
have failed...
since The
Syndicate was
first
created.
Since no other
guild has
achieved what we
have, that means
there is about a
1 in 80,000,000
chance of
recreating The
Syndicate by
someone
else. In
the United
States, you have
about a 1 in 1.2
million chance
of being struck
by lightning
this year.
So you are 66.66
times more
likely to be
struck by
lightning than
you are to
recreate The
Syndicate's
level of
success.

Syndicate by
